Machado will cost $40 million in surplus value, and the Orioles wants arms.
The Braves are absolutely one of the few teams with the prospects to make this work.
Here's a package that would work:
Mike Soroka OR Luiz Gohara (55 FV prospects) ($22 million surplus value)
Ian Anderson OR Touki Toussaint OR Joey Wentz (50 FV prospects) ($14 million surplus value)
lower level 40 FV prospect ($5 million surplus value)
A package with just Soroka and Gohara could also work theoretically. Kyle Wright would be another guy in that 55 FV range we could trade.
I would be all over this if we don't give up Pache.
Then we could sign Machado long term.
